Expert Opinion
Professional reviewers praised the Kraken for its comfortable cooling‑gel ear pads, clear boom microphone, and the flexibility of Razer Synapse’s EQ and virtual 7.1 surround. However, they criticized the boomy bass, subdued treble, weak passive isolation, and the USB‑only connection that limits platform compatibility.
What Users Say
Everyday users love how light and comfortable the headset feels, often calling it "super duper light" and noting the soft cushions and clear mic. Common complaints revolve around the lack of a swivel, bass that can dominate vocals, a thin cable, and modest build quality.
Common Complaints
Users frequently mention the non‑detachable USB cable, insufficient noise isolation, bass overpowering mids, lack of head‑swivel adjustment, and concerns about the thin plastic cable durability.
